Crystal structure determination

This textbook gives a concise introduction to modern crystal structure determination, emphasizing both its theoretical background and the way it is actually carried out. The theoretical sections are supported by many illustrations, and emphasise good understanding rather than rigorous mathematics. The most important data collection techniques, and the methods of data reduction, structure solution and refinement are discussed from a practical point of view. Many tips and insights help readers to recognize and avoid possible errors and traps, and to judge the quality of results. The second edition has been considerably updated, especially the chapter on experimental methods, which is now mainly concerned with modern data collection using area-detectors. From the reviews of the first edition - "Distinguished by its attention to the practicalities of working with real crystals ... a lucid and relatively concise account of modern crystal structure solution ... valuable to anyone who has an interest in crystal structure refinement." The Geological Magazine.

From the reviews of the first edition: "The book provides a nice balance between describing the mathematical fundamentals and offering practical advice on how to solve a crystal structure ... appropriate for an undergraduate audience (particularly in chemistry) and for graduate students or researchers who find they need a better grasp of the subject ... a very helpful addition to the collection of introductory texts in X-ray crystallography. Especially for its treatment of common errors in the collection of intensity data and in the interpretation of results." Acta Crystallographica."
